xlrator could you please let the rest of us know the correct repair code as stated, (Dealer put in wrong code on the struts and told me that gm wouldn't cover at a cost to me of around 2,900.00. I called GM and got correct repair code and am getting the struts free of charge). As for the...

I put the D3 cai and tune on my xlr-v and love it. It sounds fantastic now if you like to hear the supercharger whine and the air intake sound. The performance is noticeable as well. I can't give you a number, for that, but I'm sure you have read D3 site. You also might consider the mild to wild...

Good news, the xlr is back and working! Total bill $1395.78, and my part after warranty paid is $376.25.. I did keep the pump assembly and have taken the motor apart. Next stop my buddy that repairs electronics to tell me if he can get the motor to work again. There is a little circuit board...

Oh yes I gotta have some! As soon as I get back from a voluntary visit with the dentist and as soon as I am done watching the grass grow I will be after them. :dunno:

Todays update: Work not started yet, waiting on new pump (ordered thursday). The warranty co. has ok'd the job. They have agreed to pay for the bleeding now. I will be out the deductible, and the difference in the price they can get the pump for and the price my shop is getting it for, and the...

Tyrone, I would guess that is the problem the tsb was for, though not my problem. Today I hear from them again, and the warranty co. has stated (per my shop) that they will pay $1197 for the pump and the shop is stating $1380 or so for their source. The shop also says the warranty wont pay for...

CC yes I did clear the codes and rerun the scan. I very much appreciate your help and will be calling back on you if the dealer doesn't get the job done for me.

Update on my top. I finally got it to the dealer Thursday for diagnosis. They diagnose the pump as bad, and called it in to my warranty company. Since then the warranty co. sent a representative to the dealer to check their conclusion. He said there is a tsb on it, and they don't want to pay for...

I had those tires on a 2011 mustang gt. They got NO traction for me. I realize I am talking about a mustang (notoriously) bad starting traction. Under 20,000 miles they were very loud on the highway. I didn't buy them again. I just wanted to go burn them off and get different, but couldn't make...

version 32.008 The car lives inside unless being driven so no water ever. I have checked the drain hole in the past anyway. I wondered if the heat effected it, I had it outside on 100 degere day for an hour before taking off. After arriving at Joplin dealer, to drive a cts-v, I asked them to...

I decided to take a trip to try out a cts-v about an hour away. I suppose my car (xlr-v) got jealous because I backed it out of the shop and cleaned the wheels, then put the top up. Only it wouldn't go up. Trunk lifted an inch or so and went right back down. The dic says top motor overheat...

I would open the trunk and look in the little pocket at the rear, inside on drivers side. That is where the top related parts live. It has a little carpeted cover to remove, and look for ANY evidence of water marks or corrosion. If you suspect the car has been wet (other than rain)/even...

Those stories remind me of letting my step daughter take mine to the prom. Her boyfriend got to drive it in the line. A "Dirty" white ford taurus of all things was in the line behind my car. The dude who wasn't even dressed nice would race up behind my car and stop quick. Needless to say I...

Every thing from the factory can be improved. The factory parts are always a compromise. They can't build a car that has, the softest ride, the greatest cornering, the quietest tires and the longest lasting, all in one tire. No doubt I would like a softer, quieter ride at times, than what the...

I suppose carfax etc.. can at times let you know you should stay away from a car. It will never be able to state "that car is good"... I had a car that got totaled and I bought it back form the insurance co. for a small fee. I decided to carfax it a couple years later for kicks. It had a clean...

When you turn on the radio and it has poor reception, try changing to am and then right back to fm. It works for me and I learned it on here. :wave:

I tried that one day!!!! My buddy took me to an old abandoned runway out here in the southeast Kansas area. Since I was dumb enough to trust my buddy, off we went. When we reached about 90 the runway ended. He had told me it was 2 miles long! Soooo, if you do try that, take a tour of the place...

I don't have an actual answer, but I can tell you my v will go 155. It might go faster, I just didn't try. One day I took the mustang gt out the computer made it stop at 150, and I said to my self "xlr better be able to beat that". When it did I was satisfied :blinzel:.

CC are the books more comprehensive than manuals on cd?
